Visualising the Urban Imaginary: Failure and Irresolution in an Urban Digital Twin
Short Abstract The article analyses the visualisation encountered in an urban digital twin to argue that recognising the visualisation as a representation of the city is dependent upon habituation to perceptual and computational practices. Through speculative engagement with moments of visual irresolution, the article highlights the importance of ...

An investigation into the performance of vegetated biofilters in removing nutrients from stormwater in the City of Cape Town, South Africa [PDF]
In 2009, the City of Cape Town (CoCT) adopted a stormwater policy which mandates that new and existing developments should reduce the concentrations of phosphorus and suspended solids in stormwater runoff by 45% and 80% respectively, but offered no ...

A comparative evaluation of computer‐based and virtual reality visualization tools in environmental planning demonstrates that VR provides stronger experiential qualities, while both tools effectively communicate information, improve understanding of complex issues, and support informed decision‐making in watershed planning.

Down with the drain : looking after our urban runoff and waterways in the era of sustainable management : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Resource and Environmental Planning at Massey University [PDF]
Recent reforms of environmental and local government legislation have radically changed the nature of environmental management in New Zealand. There is a new mandate for the "sustainable management" of natural and physical resources. This thesis examines

Road salt alters chironomid assemblage structure and impairs diversity in coastal urban lakes
Abstract Lakes in urban areas face increasing salinization from the widespread application of road de‐icing salts. Chironomid (Diptera: Chironomidae) larvae are common bioindicators and important lower‐trophic‐level organisms, but their response to road salt in urban lakes is not well‐characterized.

Abstract Autumn is an important transition time for seasonally stratified lakes where summertime stratification shifts to cooler, mixed periods. While ponds can also experience prolonged summertime stratification, their relatively low water volume accelerates mixing, suggesting they could have distinctly different autumn mixing dynamics compared to ...

Abstract Soil moisture monitoring plays a critical role in water resource management, hydrological modeling, and climate studies, making sensor accuracy and reliability increasingly important. This study evaluates the performance of five soil moisture sensors—the CS655, HydraProbe, TDR‐315N, TEROS 12, and ThetaProbe—using their default calibrations ...
